I prefer skinny jeans (and jeggings) as they go with whatever else I throw at them.
I was surprised at how much I prefer myself in them, I'd always been a boot cut woman as thought skinny jeans were just for teenagers/early twenty something's with waif like figures. I'm an hourglass shape and I completely prefer my body in skinnys and jeggings. I was convinced to try some on, after much huffing/sighing I took them to changing room and was seriously gobsmacked. so yeah, skinny jeans for me!

Congrats on weight loss to OP
. Prefer skinny but have but boot cut as well. Like Gap's, but found good cheap ones in TK Maxx. You just have to hunt around a bit. (Hope guys are allowed to post here too? )

Skinny jeans, for sure. I hope the trend never dies! I can't go back to flares.
I love quite a few High Street stores for jeans. Dorothy Perkins, Top Shop and River Island are my top three and I thoroughly recommend them. I wear those more than 7 For All Mankind and Max Mara ones. |

Definitely skinny jeans. Or if not, then slim fit or straight leg. Bootcut jeans look rather dated now, I think. Although I do have a pair of skinny flares.

If you are young and happened to be female ( or male for that matter) you should try to wear it as less as possible as it reduce the chances to get pregnant ( if you are planning it...) So, avoid jeans....

I like straight jeans, or a very slim flare/bootcut. Skinny jeans can be really uncomfortable - I have the jeggingsy version, but only wear them with longer tops. I like to buy more expensive ones in a sale rather than cheaper ones at full price. I agree with the poster who advised you to shop around and to have a look in TK Maxx

Another fan of skinny jeans here, especially now its getting colder, nice to wear with boots and a long jumper! but do like my scruffy bootlegs with wedgey sandals in summer.

I'm a bloke and I prefer boot cut jeans in the main though I do have a couple of pairs with a slight flared hem from a few years ago that I really don't want to throw away and enjoy wearing from time to time.
I swim frequently and have more generous thighs than a lot of blokes, so when I tried skinny jeans on a few years ago, they just didn't look right on me! However, I have a pair of 'straight cut' trousers, which aren't as bad, and look fine on me though I wouldn't say I preferred them to boot cut jeans. |

I have skinny and bootcut. Bootcut for wearing with platforms, sandals and ankle boots. Skinny for flats, knee highs and flip flops.

Im the same. I am a sixe 14-16 and i really didn't think skinny jeans would suit me. But I bought a pair when i lost weight (i was a size 20) and I love them. They look great with boots and long tops. But if I go out for the evening I dress them up with blouses and they look just as good.

yep and that jeggings with long tops, kindred spirits . I never find any in TK Maxx, maybe because i'm a short arse and need shorter leg length

I love Levi Curve but then they're the only jeans that really fit my big bum/small waist combo

Neither, I only ever wear straight jeans, but they're becoming quite hard to find. Primark stopped selling them

Skinny jeans looks nice and sexy specialy with high heels. I have fat thigh and i should rather wear straight jeans, but it's difficult to find them. Maybe you have some tested internet shops?

Straight jeans are getting harder to find. I got some Diesel ones second hand from ebay though and they're really nice. If you don't mind second hand, might be worth a look. Also I've seen a few pairs on Brandalley - but they were expensive even with the discount.

The only jeans I wear are skinnies. I like the American Apparel Easy Jeans/Topshop Joni Jeans as they are high waisted, make your waist look tiny and are well fitting. Need to wear a thong or G string (or no panties...hehe) as you will have very obvious VPL with those jeans though.
